Synthesized Verdict

"With a BrickScore of 33.5 and a unanimous "skip" verdict from both reviewers, Captain America vs. Red Hulk Battle is a hard sell: it's an overpriced, shallow build whose only genuine appeal lies in four movie-tied minifigures that still have notable quality shortcomings."

Both reviewers independently recommend skipping 76292, citing a painfully high price for a shallow build and underwhelming play value. The four movie-tied minifigures — Sam Wilson's Captain America, Falcon/Joaquin Torres, Sabra/Ruth Bat-Seraph, and the updated Red Hulk BigFig — are the set's only real draw, yet even their execution attracts criticism. The fighter jet itself is widely dismissed as uninspired and barely functional as a display or play piece.

Where they split: Hoth Bricks rates the minifigures notably higher (68) and credits the lineup more generously — calling the Sam Wilson Captain America and the Red Hulk BigFig genuine highlights. Brick Fanatics is far cooler on the minifigures (35), pointing to missing leg printing, Red Hulk's inaccurate head, and a "lackluster" selection overall. Both agree the set is overpriced and the vehicle is weak, but their enthusiasm for the figures themselves is the one meaningful split.

CRITICIZED (12)

01Severely overpriced at ~€55 for only 223 pieces — poor price-per-piece ratio
02Fighter jet design is uninspired, basic, and of unclear relevance to the film
03Fixed, non-poseable wings with balance and stability issues on the Falcon wing attachment
0416 stickers, many fiddly — several pieces that could and should have been printed
05Redwing drone rendered as a sticker rather than a pad-printed piece
06Minifigures cannot stand stably without manual adjustment
07Missing leg printing on most minifigures
08Red Hulk lacks grey hair or stubble to match on-screen appearance; rough pad printing on legs with incomplete ink coverage
09Captain America's face largely hidden behind helmet
10Sabra largely composed of recycled parts despite new torso
11Minimal build experience — set functions primarily as a minifigure-extraction vehicle
12Very limited display potential

What reviewers are saying

"Between the reduced inventory and the mind-boggling retail price of this box, one could almost imagine that it is a reference stamped 4+ but this is not the case"

Hoth Bricks

"The fighter jet is an uninspired craft, one that looks way more exciting than it really is."

Ecosystem

76078 Hulk vs. Red Hulk — The new Red Hulk BigFig in 76292 is an evolution of the 2017 version with updated fringes on the shorts. However, 'nothing looks more like a BigFig than another BigFig'—the new version maintains the same debate over whether the BigFig format is appropriate for this character.

71031 LEGO Marvel Studios Collectible Minifigure Series (2021) — The new Sam Wilson Captain America uses improved printing with pad-printed legs, unlike the Series 71031 bagged version. However, the wing attachment solution feels cruder than the 'lighter' wing design of the 71031 Collectible Minifigure Series variant.

76232 The Hoopty — Both sets exemplify LEGO's minifigure-focused pricing strategy. The Hoopty (420 pieces, 3 minifigs, €94.99) shows that 76292 (223 pieces, 4 minifigs, €54.99) is comparatively overpriced on a per-piece basis, though the minifigure factor drives both products' market positioning.

76078 Hulk vs. Red Hulk — 76078 launched in 2017 for £54.99 / $59.99 / €59.99 and came with two chunky vehicles, two minifigures and two bigfigs, making it better value than the current set at similar price

Value drivers

Hoth Bricks: The four exclusive or exclusive-variant minifigures (Captain America/Sam Wilson, Falcon, Sabra, Red Hulk), particularly the new Red Hulk BigFig

Brick Fanatics: Red Hulk bigfig

Exclusivity

Hoth Bricks: LEGO Store and official retailer launch; limited third-party retailer availability at launch

Brick Fanatics: Movie tie-in set for Captain America: Brave New World; one of three initial LEGO Marvel sets based on the film

Resale

Hoth Bricks: Likely to see discounting at non-LEGO retailers almost immediately. LEGO's pricing strategy exploits minifigure collector demand despite overpriced retail positioning.

Brick Fanatics: Likely to depreciate; reviewer notes 'We can only hope that a version of the Red Hulk bigfig pops up in a more affordable and fun LEGO Marvel set somewhere down the line'

Standout parts (per reviewers)

Wing attachment system for Falcon minifigureValue
New assembly approach but creates stability and balance issues; the figure cannot stand without being leaned forward.
Red Hulk leg printing
Pad-printed legs with rough edges; ink coverage is incomplete on production copies.
Redwing drone representation
Only rendered as a sticker rather than a pad-printed minifigure piece, which is disappointing for the price point.
Red Hulk bigfigValue
New version with more refined printed tattered trousers and moveable head; only the second Red Hulk bigfig created to date
